Occupational safety comprises all measures and regulations aimed at ensuring the safety and health of employees at work. It includes preventive and reactive strategies to prevent accidents and health damage that could occur as a result of work.
Occupational safety is not only required by law, but is also essential for the well-being of employees and the efficiency of the company. According to a study by the International Labor Organization (ILO) from 2022, accidents at work and work-related health problems cost billions of euros annually. Good occupational safety measures not only reduce accident rates, but also the associated financial and operational burdens. Studies show that companies with effective occupational safety strategies have higher productivity and lower absenteeism.
Inadequate occupational safety can result from a lack of training, outdated safety measures, or an inadequate risk assessment. Companies are often insufficiently informed about current regulations or do not invest enough in preventive measures. Inadequate communication of safety guidelines can also lead to an increased risk for employees.
